Looking for a TR3B Headlamp Bucket in good condition. Also, could use the Outer Retainer and Chrome Headlamp Rim.

Art
 
My experience with headlamps has been total confusion. Two adjuster versus three adjuster; buckets with springs versus buckets without; thin rims versus thick rims; and rims retained with hinges, screws and snaps. I have seen late cars with early set-ups and the opposite.

What do you have on the other side?
 
I believe that both of my headlamps are original. Both buckets have 2 adjusters with springs. The chrome trims rings have the 2 tabs or snaps. I'm not sure if the rims are considered thin or thick. I'm looking to replace one of my buckets which is out of shape due to an accident years ago. I've tried straightening it but the chrome trim ring is still extremely difficult to put on. I thought of getting a new one from Moss but based on recent purchases I'm not sure of the quality anymore. TRF doesn't appear to have them.
